Desirable home in the Hunnewell Hill neighborhood in the Village of Newton Corner with its well-respected school system and exceptionally easy access to Boston/Cambridge and major highways with myriad ways in and out of the city via public transportation. South facing with sunlight streaming in, the feel is airy and inviting with the classic slate roof, rich moldings, and the detailing one expects in a Colonial-style house built circa 1900. During their stewardship, the owners have made thoughtful updates including: enlargement and renovation of the eat-in kitchen with addition of a butler’s pantry, mudroom, half bath and rear deck; conversion of the three season porch to a heated office/playroom; consolidation of two rooms to create a master bedroom with oversized closet and private bath; and remodel of second floor family bathroom. The lower level houses the play room, laundry, and mechanicals.
